they realize Just what the College
will be confident they VIII
change their opinion. OF course
many regret that the present faculty
cannot be retained, and none more
so than myself, for through all the
draw backs and losses the school has
undergone, they have stood by it,
and it has been their perseverance
and determination together with
occasional pecuniary aid from Mr..
Wright, thar has kept the school
running. The College will be con
Quoted much on the same painciple

In the March Rep1r, from the L. ;.
Department of Agriculture is an expose
OF the Bohemian oats sWindle. The
game has been played upon farmers
since 1850 in New York, Pennsylvania.
Ohio, Kentucky. Tennessee, Indiana.
Michigan. Wisconsin. Iowa and other
western states. The fraud has been
detected in $50 counties. The LOSSES are
immense. The above Report says that
in Ohio alone they would not be covered
by 100000. Moreover the grain is less
valuable than common oats and has nc
standing in the grain market.
The newspapers OF the country have
made exposure of this and other swim
dies. But many fail to heed the warn
ing, probably because they fail to take
and read the papers. We venture lit
tie in saying that every family, neglect
ing to take newspaper, for lack of il
gets cheated annually in an amount ten
times greater than the cost of a good
paper If all farmers had taken and
read the papers, they would have saved
the legislators the trouble of passing Z
bill to protect them against sharpers

WASHINGTON, June 8.-Gilmore'S fine

fielding, enabled the Washingtons to
secure an easy victory over the Bostons
to-day. Radbourne was batted hard all
the Washingtons were badly scattered
and they only earned two runs. Gill
more, on the other hand, puzzled the
Bostons greatly and, except in the first
inning, when they made two hits, their
batting was very weak. Score:

fielding, batting and base running, and
the generally loose work of the home

BILL CHANDELIERS PLUM.
He viii Be the Next Senator From
New Hampshire.

Special to the Globe
CONCORD, n. H., June S.-Recent de-
velopmentS and canvass of the MEM
berS of both the senate and the house
demonstrate without any possible queS-
ton that ex-Secretary William E.
Chandler will be nominated for senator
tomorrow night by the Republican cau-
Gus. The GLOBE correspondent to-day
saw a majority of the members of
both houses, and from views eX-
pressed by them was certain that
Chandler will have at least 100
more than 100. His name will go be-
fore the legislature next Tuesday as the
regular Republican nominee, and there
is not much doubt of his election.
Within the last twenty-four hours the
senatorial contest has changed very
materially. Rollins, who made the
bittereSt fight at the start, has suddenly
relapSed into state of apathy. He has
had a talk with Chandler, and although
no knows exactly how matters have
been patched up, they have certainly
arrived at some understanding. Rollins
is still at Eagle, but he has ceased his
active hostility, and his followers to-
day have been seen smoking cigars out
in Chandeliers headquarters. Rollins
has entirely stopped work and his lieu
tenants are doing nothing. The eXpla-
nation of the sudden withdrawal of Rol-
Inns is said to be that he has been induced
to see that no matter how things may go,
even if Chandler should be defeated,
there is no chance that he (ROllins)
will be elected. This being settled, it
only remained to be decided whether he
would keep up the battle to complicate
matters for Chandler. Late tonight
some of the Marston men held quiet
conference with a few Chandler
men. They made proposition to
vote for Chandler if he would
consent to railroad long-term senator
ship scheme through. Marston would
accept a short term if Chandler would
like the long one. The Chandler men
positively refused to listen to the over
lures, and said they would have nothing
to do with the long-term business. They
were perfectly satisfied with the outlook
at present. This ends all possible
chances of compromise between OPP
posing factions.

THE PATHFINDER AsTRAY.

There isn't so much in name after
all. The temperance Pathfinder seems
to have lost its way mighty quick when
it got into Minnesota woods. Whatever
the merits or dement's of this particular
temperance publication may be, no one
will regret its rejection after reading
the report of the text book commission,
the substance of which is given in this
issue of the GLOBE. The insanity
methods of some of the saintliest tenn
perance folks are the werst distractions
that the temperance cause finds in its
pathway. The devices that were re-
sorted to in order to foist the Pathfinder
series on the public schools is an illus
tratiOn OF this fact. The GLOBE is not
prepared to say that the text book COM
mission made the best selection that
could have been made, but it does not
hesitate to affirm that under all the cir
cumStances the commission did right in
rejecting the Pathfinder series. A book
that has to be bolstered up by such
crooked methods as were adopted in
this instance must be of questionable
merit.

FiNDLAY IN FLAMES.
The First Natural Gas Celebration
q Great Success.

FINDLAY, o., June S.-The first
celebration of the anniversary of the dis
covery of natural gas in the Northwest
and it's application in mechanical arts
commenced at Findlay to-day. A large
number of people were in attendance.
The feature which gave character to
the demonstration was the laying of
corner stones of six new factories. To-
morrow corner stones will be laid for
four manufacturing establishments.
These will employ, when completed,
1850 men. The aggregate daily out put
of wells in and about Findlay is ninety
million cubic feet. This has caused the
location of thirty-one substantial
factories at Findlay within twelve
months. There is notable gathering
of CantonS of Patriarch Militant and of
uniformed rank of Knights of Pythias.
These two orders Superintend the lay
ing of corner stones. There will be
more soldiers here than there were at
Washington during the national drill.
In the afternoon there was drill for
prizes of $1,000 engaged in by CantonS
of Patriarch Militant. The first prize,
$3.50, was won by Marion, Ind,
Canton; second, by Muncie, Indiana
Canton. The main street of Findley is
spanned from end to end with arches,
from which blaze great plumes of flame.
The wigwam in which Sherman and
others are to speak is covered with
globes of colored glass, and before it
the Karg well is burning with roar
that can be heard mile away. The
whole country is lighted up for dis
lance of twenty miles. Thursday there
will be drills for large prizes and i'm the
evening Senator Sherman, Gen. Thomas
Powell and Gov. Foraker, will make
speeches, and papers will be read by
biologists of note.

ONLY ONE FISH.
Growers Last Day Not Very Sue
cesSfuI---The Return Trip.

PROSPECT HOUSE, Upper Saranac,
June 6.-The presidents last fishing
day in the Adirondacks was delight
full one. He started off with DR.. Ros-
man about o'clock. The PRESIDENT
trolled industriously, stopping only for
lunch. until after sunset, but caught
only one three-pounder and missed
strike that promised to result in the kill
ing of the biggest fish he has
yet taken. Mrs. Cleveland and
Mrs. Lamont, in one boat, and
Mrs. BOSNIAN in another, went out just
before sunset and met the returning
fisherman about three miles from the
landing. The arrangements for the de-
parture tomorrow were about decided
upon yesterday. The only variation to
be made will be an earlier start than
was at first intended, so as to give the
party rest and comfortable dinner at
Paul Smiths before taking the second
stage of the journey of nine miles in
buckboards. The ride to the railroad
station is twenty-six miles long and will
be accomplished in about three hours.
The stay in Albany, which will be
reached early Friday morning, will be
one of three hours only, the presidents
programme allowing him only sufficient
time to breakfast with Gov. Hill before
resuming his journey to Washington.

A. Barnum, retired business man,
awoke this morning and found a burglar
in his room. "Who are your inquired
Barnum. The burglar said, 'Hush,"
and sprang to the side of the bed with
q dagger, which he held over Barnum.
The latter grappled with him, and they
had a terrible fight along a long
hall, tearing up the carpet and
spattering the walls with blood. The
burglar stabbed Barnim in the face
twice. BY desperate effort Barnum
threw his aSSailant i'm bath tub. The
burglar stabbed him in the shoulder
and twisted the dagger around. Bar
nun called for help. BY this time the
whole family were in the hall. Mrs.
Barnum was screaming and her daugh-
ter was frantic with fear. ArnZi, Mrs.
Barnum's son, rushed to his fathers as
sistance and they diSarmed the burglar.
Mrs. Barnum went down stairs and
procured clothes line and the prisoner
was tied hand and foot, carried
down stairs and laShed to the stair rails.
a messenger was sent for Officer Wag-
oner, Arnzi and Mrs. Barnum watching
their prisoner and the daughter trying
to stop the bleeding of her fathers
wounds. He had been stabbed five
times, twice in the face, twice
in the shoulder and once in
the foot. The point of the dagger was
broken off in the scuffie, and to this
fact, possibly, Mr.. Barnum owes his life

JOhnstown, Pa, says the flood yesterday
was caused by water spout west of

property is great. Many thousand logs
belonging to the Latrobe Lumber COM
pany passed here yesterday. The
bridges above here were carried off.

The one at Coopersdale was entirely.
swept away, as was the one at Vonlu-,
mems, near town. The destruction of
property is enormous, but the amount
cannot be aScertained now. At HOovers-
vile the work of the flood is appalling
Upwards of twenty residences were
washed Off their foundations and de-
deposited on the ground. At least 100
families in the borough alone lost
everything in the lower story and cell
airs of their houses. The water having
subsidized, the scene to-day is one of de-
moraliZation and ruin. Yards and
streets are blocked with debris and rub
bish, houses filled up with water-soaked
goods, and multitudeS of women and
children standing about, weeping and
mourning over their ruined homes. In
GrubbtOwn, COnnermaugh borough,
Worthwhile, MinerSville, Cambria City
and COOperSdale, the same scene is pre-
